About this property

1836 Rustic Barn Retreat | Bar & Game Room |Tennis Court |FirePit |Swim Spa |Lake

Black Walnut Farm is a converted 1836 post-and-beam constructed barn that has been transformed into a rustic retreat that takes you back in time. It's a ten minute walk to Geneva Lake and Abbey Resort, but it feels like you are tucked away in your own personal oasis. It features a bar and game room and a tennis court for your enjoyment. The 14-seat "team" table and room for 26 can easily host your next group get-together or family event. Sunsets and stars from the back deck are fantastic, and s'mores will be had at the fire pit! Feel as though you are back in time while enjoying all of the modern amenities of a beautifully kept property and luxuriously outfitted home. The Black Walnut farm is magic and we look forward to accommodating your stay.

***NEW FOR 2025: Starting May 1st 2025, this property now has a swim spa (hot tub) for guest use!***
